Evonik is expanding the production capacity of its ACEMATT® precipitated matting agents at its manufacturing facility in Taiwan.

Evonik is increasing the production capacity of its ACEMATT® precipitated matting agents at its manufacturing facility in Taiwan. Capacity expansion is expected by the second half of 2023 and will allow Evonik to meet the growing demand for matting agents in the Asian region.

“The capacity expansion of our leading matting agents in Taiwan further emphasizes our commitment to the growing markets in Asia and to all our regional and multi-national customers,” says Maximilian Morin, Head of Industrial & Transportation Coatings at Evonik Coating Additives. “We are continuously expanding our position as a truly global partner for our coatings customers by offering the same high quality products from manufacturing locations in multiple regions. In times of rising logistical challenges, such an investment will also directly benefit our partners and customers across the globe by further improving our supply situation worldwide.”

ACEMATT® matting agents manufactured in Taiwain will have the same properties as the products currently manufactured at Evonik's manufacturing plant in Bonn, Germany.
